What the farm does

Six things happen here. Pick one to see what it involves.

Tours

Nine moments from a farm tour: gelato, crafts, planting, holding a rabbit, the playground tower, the zipline, a burger, smoothies and the forest.

Have you ever wondered how long it takes for vegetables to get from the farm to the table, or the fruit into your smoothie? How milk and gelato are made, or what makes our lean cuts of meat so good? Come and learn — a guided hour around the animals, the shamba, the fish ponds and the compost that ties them together.

Farm-to-fork organic food

A plated farm-to-fork dish with fries, served on a wooden round at the restaurant.

At the Adventure Cove Restaurant you will be served only the best quality food, fresh from the farm. On the menu you will find everything from colourful salads to a variety of burgers and pizzas, prepared in our wood-fired oven. Every dish changes with what the shamba is producing — farm to fork, about forty metres of it.

Sustainability

A wooden produce display stacked with greens and vegetables under the farm trees.

Being forced to live within the limits of available physical, natural and social resources, we produce our own organic manure, harvest our own seeds and continually enhance the biodiversity – flora and fauna – on the farm. We have a water catchment system to make the most of the water we use, and we work to find productive avenues for the waste we create.

Wellness

Three carafes of green smoothie on a wooden table with fresh mint.

With life’s fast pace, spending time outdoors, with the lush gardens and trees is just the ticket for your restoration. Visiting the farm and enjoying the fresh air is a great start. We invite you every Wednesday evening to connect with your inner self through yoga.

We’ve created a welcoming outdoor space to facilitate the growth of your yoga practice. By inspiring curiosity, courage and contemplation through soulful and mindful movement, you can be sure to disconnect from your day-to-day life and connect with your mind, body and soul. On top of that, an outdoor spa, nutribaskets, smoothies, vegan gelato and sorbets for the art of healthy living.

Events

A party set up in the garden with a shade sail, bunting, balloons and hay-bale seating.

We make your events unique and memorable. The children never get enough of ziplining and petting the rabbits. Our Farm to Fork menu will ensure your child’s birthday party, graduation or baby shower unforgettable.

Apart from the space we can also offer special meals or catering — just let us know what you would be interested in and we will do our best to accommodate those wishes.

The Artisanal Market

Two makers at their stall with hand-carved wooden clocks and crafts.

Looking for a memento to remember your trip? The Artisanal Market curates unique handcrafted artefacts for your enjoyment. Why not bring a treasure home with you on the first Saturday of every month, 9am to 6pm, here at Adventure Farm.

The permanent staff

Five of them. They have not asked for a raise. Children can pet, feed and photograph all of them.
